IBOAI HISTORY |
First we were
The American Way Association - then, with the formation of Amway, we became the
Amway Distributors Association.
As the business changed and Amway
matured into
Alticor,
Amway,
Amway Global, formerly Quixtar, and their sister companies,
so the Association matured – we became the
IBOAI (Independent Business Owners Association
International). Take a moment to learn about our proud
history:
